Elaboration
As mentioned in the theme sound hearing and therefore noise is one of the most serious sensory problems among people on the spectrum. This is the reason to reduce noise generally. When building or rebuilding homes, reverberation too requires attention. The reason for particular attention here is that people on the spectrum have the added problem of confusion about the sources of noise. Reverberated noise is hard to identify for everyone, so requires extra attention here.

Reverberation can, among other things be muffled by making ceilings absorbent, such as through attaching soundproof blankets to the ceiling with slates spaced one third of an inch apart.

Sound absorbing adhesive plates can be bought too for application on walls and ceilings, as one can find in places such as youth centers.

Walls may be finished with a sound-absorbing and shockproof membrane.

Roughly plastered walls are sound-absorbing too, but shouldn’t be too sharp at places that can be touched.

*Elaboration

The introduction of this recommendation bears a very strong resemblance to the intro of recommendation 106; the difference being that here we are concerned with building or rebuilding a house and in 106 with interior design.
